A Rising Tide
I saw this quote, "A rising tide lifts all ships," the other day at the bottom
of someone's email signature. There's was no credit attached, so I don't know
where it originated from or the original context it was written in. But it
struck me in that moment, the potential application for us as Christians today.
So may times it's easier to migrate towards the crowd we find ourselves in than
to stand out as different. We criticize, we gossip, we judge, we ridicule, and
we bend the truth. It's the tendencies of a fallen world. But what if we not
only opted out of those practices, but actually offered the opposite? What if we
praise and encourage, what if we exercise humility and offering, what if we look
for the good, and demonstrate the life of Christ, instead?
Can one
person make a difference? Maybe you can't change the world by yourself, but you
can change someone's life. And if your circle of friends all raised the "tide"
in their own lives, imagine how many "boats" could be raised up with you.
